Origin:
Formed by chrisisawesomes123, the two had views towards building a business together. However, the times they shared playing games where they were able to become Police Officers to enforce the law for the greater good greatly influenced their decision. Today, the Pennsylvania State Police stands with a range of diverse members with a dedication service to the community of the State of Pennsylvania for years and years to come.
Values: In partnership with the community, we pledge to:
• Protect the lives and property of our fellow citizens and impartially enforce the law. • Fight crime both by preventing it and by aggressively pursuing violators of the law. • Maintain a higher standard of integrity than is generally expected of others because so much is expected of us. • Value human life, respect the dignity of each individual and render our services with courtesy and civility. • Gather intelligence required to successfully report and take action among unruly players.

Peace Officers may only use force when their life or someone else's is in imminent danger.
The Pennsylvania State Police is committed to the sanctity and preservation of life, human rights, and the dignity of every individual. Department members are sometimes required to use force in self-defense, defense of others, and during the execution of lawful duties. In all situations, Department members are required to conduct themselves in accordance with lawful and constitutional standards.
As leaders on the Police Department, all members shall view their duties in the context of safety for themselves and others, with an emphasis on respect, professionalism, and reverence for human life, even when force is required.
In cases where Police Department personnel must take action to conduct lawful duties where there is not necessarily an immediate physical threat, members shall take into account and communicate (where applicable) tactical considerations predicated on preventing the use of force whenever possible.
For planned tactical operations, such as service of warrants, parole compliance searches, tactical cell extractions, and prolonged passive resistance, members shall develop a tactical plan predicated on preventing the use of force whenever possible. Supervisors shall be present during planned tactical operations.
The Police Department is committed to upholding lawful, professional, and ethical standards through assertive leadership and supervision before, during, and after force incidents. This includes force prevention efforts, effective tactics, dispassionate and objective review, and analysis of every incident.
Department members shall only use that level of force which is objectively reasonable, and force should be used as a last resort. Department members should endeavor to de-escalate confrontations through tactical communication, warnings, and other common sense methods preventing the need to use force whenever reasonably possible.
When force must be used, Staff members shall endeavor to use restraint techniques when possible, and use only that level of force necessary for the situation.
Force is defined as any physical effort used to control or restrain another, or to overcome the resistance of another.
Department members are authorized to use only that amount of force that is objectively reasonable to perform their duties. "Objectively reasonable" means that Department members shall evaluate each situation requiring the use of force in light of the known circumstances, including, but not limited to, the severity of the crime at issue, whether the suspect poses an immediate threat to the safety of the member or others, and whether the suspect is actively resisting, in determining the necessity for force and the appropriate level of force. Department members maintain the right to self-defense and have a duty to protect the lives of others.
Department members shall use only that force which is objectively reasonable. Unreasonable force is that force that is unnecessary or excessive given the totality of the circumstances presented to Department members at the time the force is applied. Unreasonable force is prohibited. The use of unreasonable force will subject Department members to discipline and/or prosecution. ▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬ |
